The former head coach of Tashkent's Lokomotiv team, Yuri Syomin, shared his thoughts on the transfer of Georgiy Jikiya, a former defender of Moscow's Spartak team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, there is no need to talk about the recent period of Jikiya's career. He is a professional player and needs to play.
The Turkish championship is interesting and competitive, and now everything is in Jikiya's hands. These words were cited by the "Championat" publication.
In the 2024/2025 season, Georgiy Jikiya played for the Khimki team near Moscow. The 31-year-old defender appeared in 17 matches of the Premier League and received two yellow cards.
Unfortunately, the Khimki team could not obtain a license for the next season and left the Russian Premier League. This creates new opportunities for Jikiya to showcase himself in a new team.
In Turkey, he aims to demonstrate his skills and continue his career. His future success largely depends on him.
